My customer cannot goto www.google.com. When I do a ping
it resolves to 207.44.194.56 (wrong addy, should be
216.239.41.99). Every other PC on the network has the
same DNS config and they can goto google.com all day
long. This is the only PC with this problem. I've
already tried flushing the DNS cache, no good. This PC
is running Windows XP Pro. There is also nothing wrong
with the ISP's DNS servers.

Help.

Thanks
Tim
